New polling finds that most Americans (including 55 percent of independents) want Congress to propose a conservative alternative in response to King v. Burwell, while only 20 percent (most of them Democrats) want Congress to negotiate fixes to Obamacare.

Each of the three major types of Obamacare alternatives has a different likelihood of political success, and conservatives should carefully examine which one provides them with the best chance to achieve full repeal.

After riding an anti-Obamacare wave to control of the Senate and gains in the House, Republicans seem to be focused on small-ball “fixes” to Obamacare that please their corporate backers, rather than on paving the way to full repeal and replacement.

King v. Burwell provides Republicans with a time for choosing: they can prepare to negotiate “fixes” to Obamacare with the Obama administration, or they can lay out a plan that would effectively repeal and replace Obamacare in 36 states and lay the groundwork for full repeal in 2017.

Jeff Anderson talks about how the 2017 Project’s Winning Alternative to Obamacare can pave the way to full repeal with a plan that would move things in a conservative direction from the pre-Obamacare status quo.

The claim that Congress should never force a battle over funding the government, that it must always give the president the funding he insists upon—even for unconstitutional purposes—amounts to a claim that Congress should hand off the power of the purse.

Our system of government cannot work if the president violates his duty to faithfully execute the laws, so Congress—the branch with the greatest powers of self-defense—must defend its turf and hence the Constitution.

The nation’s two greatest statesman and its current president have all decried the sorts of lawless actions that President Obama has now undertaken, warning that such actions are incompatible with the Constitution, the presidential oath of office, and republican government.

There is not a lot of daylight between the model the CBO developed and used to score Obamacare and the Jonathan Gruber model the Obama administration paid to use, and an amazing number of “independent” favorable reviews of Obamacare ultimately trace to Gruber.
